Zombies Everywhere! Resident Evil 6 Ships 4.5 Million Units Worldwide

As of June 30, 2012, the Resident Evil franchise has sold more than 50 million copies, and with 4.5 million copies of Resident Evil 6 being shipped across the globe, there's a chance it could be the most successful Resident Evil title to date. This initial shipment is the biggest in Capcom's history.

But the question is: Will it sell? Game Informer's Tim Turi is a fan of its co-op, but reviews and gamer opinions are divided. Did you pick it up? And if so, are you enjoying it, or regretting your purchase?

Yay for RE! As for me, I bought it and I'm enjoying it, but I'm a little disappointed at it. It just doesn't have the polish that other RE games have, and I'm not crazy about the upgrade system. I liked upgrading individual guns. Don't get me wrong, I'm really enjoying it, and I'll probably do at least 3 playthroughs before I move on, but as of right now, I think it's the worst numbered Resident Evil game.

Oh, also, it's WAY too dark at times. Even with the brightness cranked up, there are parts where I couldn't see 5 feet in front of my character. I understand that it's an RE game and they're going to dark and moody, but it's unplayabley dark at certain points. It's not fun or atmospheric. It's just plain aggravating and annoying.

Awesome. Just as good as I thoughtit would be. I'm still on the first campaign (Leon's) but its fun as hell. And its already made me jump twice. That's all I couldve asked for. I know chris and Jakes campaigns are more action oriented, which is fine, cause thats how RE 5 was. No game will ever pass the perfection of RE 4 but this is as good as it gets.

I want to say part of this is due to advertising. I've seen so many promos for this game, including one in a movie theater. Negative reviews may be enough to convince most to stay away, but the consistent television advertising will draw plenty in.

I picked up the game and I'm really enjoying it. I don't really get why people are hating on it so much. I mean, there are a few things along the way that annoy me, but it really doesn't detract from my experience.

Love it. People had their expectations set to high and in my opinion are looking at the game in all the wrong ways.

Yes, there are some glaring issues to be had and the controls/camera can be a pain (weren't they always) but at the end of the day Re6 is a blockbuster and succeeds in every way a Michael Bay film fails, so stop comparing the two...please. This isn't a third person shooter like every other tps this is a resident evil third person shooter ad separates it from the junk on the market.

I have beaten the first campaign(leons) and i have to say that i am really enjoying the game. Yes there are things i love about it but at the same time there are a few things i think could have been done better. Nothing in my opinion will ever top resident evil 4, but RE6 does have some promise. As with new games there are things that could be better and there are certain aspects of it that are right where they need to be. As with older resident evil games, yes theybare better in the fact that at the time everything we saw and experienced was new and exciting. Nowadays we look at these games and see the villains and monsters and somehow are disappointed. Some of that could be that capcom is running out of ideas OR we are so used to seeing these situations that it doesnt suprise us nemore. The characters are the same in some aspects, but as we look back we have to realize in RE2 leon was a rookie cop and didnt know how to handle these types of situations so naturally you felt what he would feel while playing the game. Now Leon, Chris, Jill, and all the other characters are trained better and stronger in the fact that they know not to panic and know there is a way to beat any situation. So as u play RE6, remember, do you really expect to be horrified in situations like u were in the originals or are you expecting a certain situation at a certain time and know its coming?

I am about an hour and a half in to Leon's campaign, and I am really liking it so far. I am excited to play this game with a friend, which is something that I didn't really do in RE5. It may not be the antiquated survival horror system pre-RE4, which is my personal favorite, but I would say that this is a solid horror/action game that many different types of gamers can get into. More importantly, I am really glad that the game doesn't suck.
